 \begin{aligned} \text {Velocity,}\\ {V} &=100 \frac{\mathrm{km}}{\mathrm{h}} \\ &=\frac{100 \times 1000 \mathrm{m}}{3600 \mathrm{s}} \\ &=27.7 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} \end{aligned}

\begin{array}{l} \text { Distance, } s=100 \mathrm{m} \\ \text { Minimum time, } t=\frac{s}{v}=\frac{100}{27.7}=3.6 \ sec \end{array}
